I am considering learning Dragon Magick as I have recently become attracted to them and I also collect dragon wands now. My question is where is the best place to begin? I am aware that calling the dragons is a very serious matter as they tend to be rather large and possibly onery creatures. Thank you in advance. Brightest Blessings! Passionhawk

Hello there dear, One of the questions that I am most often asked is simply, %u201CDoes magic really exist %u2013 and if so, then how can I go about learning to do it?%u201D Well, my short answer to this is, %u201CYes, in my opinion, magic does really exist %u2013 and like anything else worth doing, you learn through lots of practice and hard work.%u201D Now let me go ahead and elaborate and explain a bit more. To me, magic is simply a term attached to tapping into previously forgotten or unlearned human potential. I believe that there was a time when many more goodly people were able to perform feats that would typically be referred to in common vernacular as %u201Cmagic%u201D %u2013 but, unfortunately, over the centuries as science and logic and so called rational thought came into ascendance, what had been learned slowly became unlearned. The old ways were abandoned and forgotten in the relentless pursuit of what was the equivalent of the next big fad. This, of course, happened for a variety of reasons. For some it was simple lack of practice and willpower. For others it was that they had never developed the gifts in the first place. And for yet others, there was the forceful conversion from the wise crafts to the more socially acceptable modes of science and logic %u2013 and it is only in recent times that the bigotry has subsided enough to allow practitioners to once again be open with their art%u2026 at least in the majority of the western world. As to how to learn to do it, well, the majority of it is about self discipline and willpower. It is amazing what the human will is capable of once we learn how to focus and hone it. But, again, learning this is not a quick or easy process. It takes time and effort%u2026 and is certainly not for people looking for instant gratification or overnight results. For those interested in learning proper techniques for focusing their will and practicing magics, I would suggest a trip to either a good bookstore that caters to such%u2026 or even just a brief sojourn to the local library. Study is the start%u2026 and practice does, indeed, make perfect.
